“…Du et al demonstrated that the presence of metallic Ni particles improves conductivity and offers superior charge-transfer kinetics. , Figure S1 shows the TG curves of CCNs-1 and CCNs-3, and Figure f shows the FT-IR spectra of CCNs-1 and CCNs-3. The two bands appearing around 3348 and 1627 cm –1 should be assigned to the stretching and bending vibrations of the O–H and CC groups, respectively. , The peak at 586 cm –1 is the Ni–O bond, which means there is a small amount of NiO in the carbon composite. We speculate that the Ni metal is relatively active and can be easily oxidized in the air.…”

With the prevalence of COVID-19, wearing medical surgical masks has become a requisite measure to protect against the invasion of the virus. Therefore, a huge amount of discarded medical surgical masks will be produced, which will become a potential hazard to pollute the environment and endanger the health of organisms without our awareness. Herein, a green and cost-effective way for the reasonable disposal of waste masks becomes necessary. In this work, we realized the transformation from waste medical surgical masks into high-quality carbon–nickel composite nanowires, which not only benefit the protection of the environment and ecosystem but also contribute to the realization of economic value. The obtained composite carbon-based materials demonstrate 70 S m–1 conductivity, 5.2 nm average pore diameters, 234 m2 g–1 surface areas, and proper graphitization degree. As an anode material for lithium-ion batteries, the prepared carbon composite materials demonstrate a specific capacity of 420 mA h g–1 after 800 cycles at a current density of 0.2 A g–1. It also displays good rate performance and decent cycling stability. Therefore, this study provides an approach to converting the discarded medical surgical masks into high-quality carbon nanowire anode materials to turn waste into treasure.

To counter the concern of the future availability of fossil fuel due to ever‐increasing energy demand and the emission generated due to its utilization, alternative renewable fuels, such as biogas and fuel additives in the form of nanoparticles emerge as viable alternative fuels. To date, no research has been carried out on the optimization of the co‐addition rate of nanoparticles and biogas. In this study, engine load (0.7–3.5 kW), Nickel oxide (NiO) Nanoparticles doped rate (NDR, 0–50 ppm), and Biogas Flow Rate (BFR, 0.5–1 kg/h) were selected as independent input variables to optimize compression ignition (CI) engine emission and performance outputs through the response surface methodology (RSM) approach. The F‐value of the RSM model indicates that the engine load variable has the greatest impact on engine output responses, with the BFR and NDR variables following in importance. At 2.54 kW engine load, 47.48 ppm NDR, and 0.747 kg/h BFR, the best engine output response was seen when the RSM model including the desirability function was optimized. Based on the optimization results, an assertion can be made that the use of nanoparticles in conjunction with biogas has a substantial impact on the emissions and efficiency of CI engines.

“…These spectra were used to calculate structural parameters such as diffraction angle (2θ), lattice spacing (d), full width at half maximum (FWHM), and phases identified long with (hkl) planes, which are listed in table 1. The average crystallite size was calculated using the Scherrer equation [15].…”

In this study, an n-type silicon wafer's diode laser (red-650nm) is used to generate 30 mW n-type porous silicon by illuminating the surface of n-type substrates. To obtain a 0.785 cm2 etched area, a double-concave lens was used. Cu2SnS3 (CTS) thin films on glass substrates were deposited using a low-cost spin coating process. X-ray diffraction was used to study the structural properties of a Cu2SnS3 thin film. The films feature a polycrystalline tetragonal structure with a preferential orientation along the (112) plane, according to the researchers. As the annealing temperature was raised, the size of the crystallites grew larger. At temperatures of 200, 250, and 300ᵒC, FE-SEM pictures revealed that Cu2SnS3's surface was denser, with fewer voids. The grain size grows larger, and the surface morphology becomes rougher, according to AFM. As the annealing temperature was increased, the band gap of Cu2SnS3 thin films fell from 2-1.65 eV. With a high absorption coefficient of 104 cm− 1, CTS thin films show a direct optical band gap. The p-type character of the developed CTS films is confirmed by hall measurements. For a thin film annealed at 300 oC, the carrier concentration, resistivity, and mobility are 1.231×1023 cm− 3, 9.987 ×10− 7 Ω cm and 50.78cm2 V− 1 S− 1, respectively. The conversion efficiency of Al/Cu2SnS3/n-PSi/Al was 3.7 percent at 300 oC, according to the findings.
